Join Cameron Park Zoo on Friday night for $5 Cinema Safari and watch the summer movie classic Jaws under the stars. Gates open at 7:30 pm with the movie starting around 8:30 pm. Feel free to bring your blankets and lawn chairs, but no outside food or drinks are allowed.
If it’s the third Saturday of the month, that means Eastside Thrift & Arts Market is happening at Brotherwell Brewing in East Waco from noon to 5 pm. As always, you can expect a variety of local food trucks and vendors, a graffiti contest, music, and more. And if you’ve ever wanted to connect with Waco’s creative community, this is the place to do it.
So if you’re at the annual Juneteenth Celebration Parade, which ends at Bridge Street Plaza at noon, walk over to Brotherwell to check it out. Or, if you’re there later in the afternoon, grab a six-pack of craft beer to go and head to Bridge Street Plaza for this week’s free Levitt AMP Waco Music Series concert.
Art Center Waco is offering a wide range of art camps this summer at Kendrick Elementary School. Next week brings half-day (morning or afternoon) and full-day camps for grades 1–3 and 4–6 on Tuesday through Friday. Taught by local artists and art teachers, kids will learn about a variety of media as well as the elements and principles of art.
See the full schedule of Art Center Waco classes.
